Congrats on the 4th floor Nate and to those that may read this, listen to Res17cue he knows what he is talking about. This KTC system can save your arse if you let it. I have not had time to post much other then roll the past 300 days but I still post roll at 615 today and when I can I jump in the pool for a while and see who's swimming. As they say, take what you need from here to stay quit folks..........

I'm back, and with a vengeance. Today is day 401. Let that sink in for a second. I have made it 401 days without nicotine. This site helped me do it. I fell away for far too long and somehow stayed quit. I don't recommend that route at all. God knows there have been temptations, but the thing that kept me quit, kept me honest, was the desire to be quit and the sheer terror of having to come back to this site and post a day 1. I would never forgive myself and I would never live it down. To any new quitters reading this, go to the beginning and read it all. You will see the gambit of emotions you are about to experience. It sucks. Boo fucking hoo. You started this addiction, it is yours to kill. Proud to be back on the site and proud to quit with everyone still in the Sultans of Quit. QLF

Well, I'm in the HOF. To be honest I never could have imagined 103 days ago that I would be quit. But here I am. A special thanks goes out to all of my brothers in the September Sultans. We fucking did it. And also thanks to Smeds and Medic and the rest of the bad ass quitters that helped me out along the way. Here's to the HOF, and here's to another floor yet to come. Cheers boys

Proud as can be for ya bro, excellent work at hitting the HOF! This is just a milepost, albeit a big one. Enjoy the weekend, celebrate your 100. Then come back in here, and refocus your energies. Post HOF is a time where lots of guys hit complacency, and drift away. I don't want that for you, or your quit. I suggest next week you go find a struggling newby and post roll with them in their group EDD. Pay it forward. I would love to see you post roll EDD in an older group as well. Pay it backward. Build up that accountability, build up that quit. I'm looking forwards to seeing you around here for a long, long time! Congrats again Nate, kick-ass quit going on here!

Alright you bunch of quitters. What in the actual fuck. I've seen 2 intros today that people posted, said they were quit, and then disappeared. This addiction doesn't get easier. What the fuck is stopping you? Flush your can, get on the site, and post roll. It's the best thing you will do for yourself all day. I promise.

To all you new quitters in the December group, keep posting those +1's. They add up quicker than you think. Day 86 now and looking back it has flown by. If you're on the fence about quitting, and just so happen to stumble upon my Saturday morning rant, sack the fuck up and quit. There's thousands of quitters here to help you. We know your hesitations and past failures because we've all been there. You are not alone in your quit.

So I ask again, what's stopping you from quitting right fucking NOW? (Rant over)

It's been a long while since I've posted anything other than roll. Had to post and run a few times. This site has helped me keep adding +1s and hopefully some new guys can learn from my quit. Today is my day 85. In 15 days I'll be in the HOF if I because of stay staying on track and keep continuously posting roll.

To any new quitters reading this, be prepared for a fight. The cravings get less frequent after 2 weeks or so but the nic bitch will randomly whisper in your ear for a lot longer than that. Hell, on day 82 I had a weird, random, out of the blue urge to throw in a fatty. Find a routine that works and stick to it. When I get a bad craving, I brush my teeth then go workout. (Don't wanna dip on freshly brushed teeth and working out releases a bunch of dopamine to combat the urge)

Invest in your quit groups. Make friends, keep each other accountable, and keep quitting. This site only works if you put the work in. None of us can quit for you. I'll always be addicted to nicotine, but that doesn't mean I need it in my blood or in my lip.
Proud of the journey you've taken so far Nate! I fixed part of your post ... I know that's how you feel!

The fucking Nic Bitch is sneaky. Just got done with the first date I've had since quitting. It was the first date with this girl. And when it was over and I headed home my addict brain said "it went well, you deserve a dip". Didn't get a can. Small victories. Keep your guard up. This fight doesn't last for just the first three days.
Congrats! 2 victories today... Good date with a new girl  telling your old mistress to hit the bricks. That is how we roll! Well done.

Keep at it today!
That stupid bitch !! (I'm talking about nicotine, not your date!)

Nice victory! The whispers get less frequent. In time, they are more like a really fat and slow flying mosquito buzzing your ear... Easy to smash and very satisfying to squash. Nicotine only takes. It takes your time, your attention, your honor, your money , and your health. Fuck that! And I guarantee tonight's date would not find you to be a charming or fuck-worthy with a big string of drool dripping down your chin.

You got this. Proud to quit with you today.

Absolutely Derk. Waste's post definitely brought me back to reality. I don't think I was feeling cured as much as I am feeling proud. I can't remember the last time I was nicotine free, and certainly not for 26 days, cold turkey. I'm proud of myself, but I have to remember that I am a pinch away from having to post a day 1 all over again. I dont want to ever have to do that
Hey brother. You are on the right track. There are some really great days and just when you feel like a badass that bitch sneaks in your ear.
We are like herd animals and the nic bitch is a lion. She's gonna try to pull you away from the herd so she can kill you. You are never safe alone. Just last week we had two brothers over 5oo days cave. It's scary as shit man. Better to be part of the herd.
One if the best things I've found is what you just wrote. Start helping new guys. It builds a bigger network and really is very rewarding.
Stay strong man.
